[PATCH v3 00/10] iio: adc: ad7124: Various fixes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

this series contains all the yet unapplied patches I created to improve
support for the ad7124. I hope collecting them all in a single series is
fine and simplifies application. It superseeds the following series:

	https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iio/cover.1731404695.git.u.kleine-koenig@xxxxxxxxxxxx
	https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iio/20241119183611.56820-2-u.kleine-koenig@xxxxxxxxxxxx
	https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iio/20241028160748.489596-6-u.kleine-koenig@xxxxxxxxxxxx

It also benefits the other ADCs making use of the ad_sigma_delta
helpers. v6.12 is used as a base plus a fix that is already in next as
64612ec9b909b699293b7220c634f67a9fc12e06.

Changes since the previous submissions:

 - Rebase to v6.12 (was v6.12-rc1 before)
 - Rewording of some commit logs to match the actual changes
 - The last five patches are new.

The rdy-gpio patch was discussed controversially before, but I'm still
convinced that it's correct to do it this way. IMHO this is also
confirmed in the discussion with tglx at
https://lore.kernel.org/all/io53lznz3qp3jd5rohqsjhosnmdzd6d44sdbwu5jcfrs3rz2a2@orquwgflrtyc/
. Also while this fix doesn't work on all platforms (because not all irq
controllers can expose the DOUT/̅R̅D̅Y line as a GPIO in addition to
triggering the irq), it is definitively useful on the platforms where it
does work. The alternative is polling instead of using the irq which I'm
sure comes at a performance cost. (And even for polling, having the GPIO
reading the DOUT/̅R̅D̅Y line is beneficial as polling a GPIO is easier and
cheaper than polling a register bit via spi.)

The patch "Fix a race condition" is supposed to cure the following
warning that triggered twice for me:

While I didn't find a way to reproduce this problem, I'm convinced the
patch fixes real race conditions like the one above.

The patch "Check for previous ready signals" fixes a similar problem as
the rdy-gpios patch. In that case however the immediate irq is triggered
by a previous measurement that didn't complete in time (e.g. because the
sysfs read was Ctrl-C'd). This one cannot be detected with the rdy-gpio
approach because in this case the device actually reports a pending irq.

The last patch isn't a fix but provides (part of) the motivation for
this series. Adding temperature support in half a work day was my
initial plan, all the fixes were found while implementing and testing
that one on a de10-nano board.

I didn't mark the patches for application to stable, because I think
this should be a maintainer decision, but if you ask me: backport all
but the last one. (Patches 3 and 7 are not fixes, but prerequisites for
the following patches.)

Best regards
Uwe
